This year in light of drastic budget cuts and state funding shortages I feel very lucky to be able to attend the ASCD Conference in San Antonio. Â A colleague of mine, describing her strategy for selecting sessions, referred to ASCD as “all gurus all the time” and she was right! Â So far the conference has been amazing. Â I’ve attended phenomenal sessions by:
- Yong Zhao
- Geoffrey Canada
- Michael Fullan
- Debra Pickering
- Robert Marzano
- Robyn Jackson
- Don Tapscott
My only complaint so far is that there are too many great sessions at the same time. Â I will definitely have to make use of the MP3/CD files and online resources when I get back to Sacramento. Â When I have a few spare moments and a robust wireless connection I will be posting and solidifying my thoughts here. Â This year’s theme is “Critical Transformations.” Â On the ASCD website many of the speakers have posted videos with their thoughts on critical transformations. Check it out. Â I posted Tapscott’s above.
